​It is with sadness that I have to inform you of the death on the 2nd September 2022, following a short stay in hospital with a chest infection, of ex PC 814 Alan WILLIAMS, 75 years.  His next of kin is his son, Richard Williams.   Alan lived at with his daughter Patricia Williams.   Alans wife Marie pre-deceased him in 2018.  Prior to joining the Police in 1971, Alan served in the Grenadier Guards.   He retired in  2004 having served mainly in B Division and  worked foot patrol in Matlock, where he was known as the Sheriff of Hurst Farm.  On retiring he ran a private hire car firm until 2012.

His funeral has been arranged for 11.10am on Friday 23rd September 2022 at Chesterfield Crematorium, Brimington Road, Chesterfield  S43 1AU.

Alan was a real character.
Mid/late 1990’s we had the dubious pleasure of receiving Matlock’s prisoners in Chesterfield Custody Suite.
John Vardy and myself came to know Alan, his section and their “regular customers” very well.
A dry wit with no edge, he typified an old fashioned beat bobby, which is probably why both the good and the not so good of Hurst Farm respected him.
Condolences to all Alan’s family.
RIP Alan.

The best police officer I have ever met 😎
I just randomly searched him
I saw him in Tesco Alfreton a few years ago
He was the type of police officer that everyone should strive to be, I'm really shocked and upset that he's not with us anymore 😭
Rip to the best police officer ever ❤️
